Analysis about the relationship between thyroid hormone and leptin in Graves’ disease of woman
Objective:To investigate the relationship of hyperthyroidism and the level of leptin and the role of thyroid hormone in leptin secretion.Methods:FT3
FT4
TSH
serum leptin and body weight were measured in 30 female Graves’ patients and 30 female controls;the percentage of body fat and leptin were calculated
the changes in various index after 6-month treatment with methimazole were observed
the relationship between thyroid hormone and leptin
percentage of leptin analyzed
and multiple regressive analysis was made on these factors.Results:The BMI
percentage of body fat and leptin level were lower than controls
however
percentage of leptin was higher than controls.The leptin level elevated insignificantly but percentage of leptin decreased significantly after 6 months treatment with methimazole.Percentage of leptin showed positive correlation with FT3
FT4 and BMI percentage of body fat.Conclusion:The percentage of leptin is higher in female thyroid hyperfunction patients than controls and thyroid hormone increases the secretion of leptin even on the condition of thyroid hyperfunction.
